Furry Friday Feature: Stella & The Healthy Fit Foodie

Happy Friday, Friends! Welcome to another edition of Furry Friday Feature! Once a month I introduce you to the furriest runners on the internet (and their favorite humans)!

This month I am thrilled for you to meet Lara from the Healthy Fit Foodie and her favorite four-legged running partner Stella!

Stella!

Hi, Lara. Tell us about your favorite running partner.

Stella is a year old Lab Collie Mix I rescued back in March of last year. She loves to spend her time napping on the couch, playing with the kitties, or chasing after birds, squirrels and lizards.

Where is your favorite place to run with your pooch?

Stella loves a change of scenery or it may just be me hahaha. Some of our favorite places to run are the dog beach and the the north and south causeway bridges.

Life's a Beach!

Tell us about a running moment that made you proud.

I just ran my first time 5k with my best friend this past Sunday and we signed up for the Disney half marathon in January. I’m so excited!

Stella wants to run the Disney half too! No Fair!

What running (or life) lesson can we learn from our dogs?

Try to see the fun in every day things and not to take things too seriously/not care what other people think. Stella can come up to me covered in dirt and with the most ridiculous look on her face and she’s the happiest pup in the world.

Just being me.

Do you want to tell us anything else about you or running with your dog?

I’m training for my first half marathon this January and Stella has been my training partner. She’s always there to push me when I want to stop and listens to me rant when I’ve had a bad day at work.
